A. Introduction This module was designed to help you master knowledge and concepts about
Volcanoes. The scope of this module permits it to be used in many different
learning situations. The lessons are arranged to follow the standard sequence of
the course. But the order in which you read them can be changed to correspond
with the textbook you are now using. After going through this module, you are
expected to describe the different types of volcanoes and volcanic eruption.
B. Development What is a volcano? Volcanoes are similar to mountains; however, they have
opening where the magma in Earth’s mantle are pushed upward as lava. One of
the famous volcanoes is the Mayon Volcano, also known as Mount Mayon, in the
province of Albay. Volcanoes are evidence that earth is active. Volcanoes are a key
part of the Earth system. Most of Earth’s atmosphere, water, and crust were
delivered by volcanoes, and volcanoes continue to recycle earth materials. Your
journey in this module will greatly enhanced your knowledge about volcanoes in
our country.
From your previous discussions in grade 7, you have learned that the Philippines is
found in the Pacific Ring of Fire. In grade you already learned about earthquakes,
now it is time to move to another lesson which is related to what you have
learned: Volcanoes.
Activity: Wonders in our Country
Philippines is home to about 300 volcanoes. Three of the magnificent volcanoes in
our country are illustrated below. Carefully look at each illustration and let’s try to
describe and differentiate these volcanoes. Write your description of each volcano
in the box below each image (Mayon, Taal & Batulao).
Looking at the physical appearance of volcanoes, there are obvious differences
among one another. Let’s further analyze what volcanoes are by answering the
questions below.
What is a volcano? _________________________________________________
What is/are the difference(s) among the three volcanoes above?
_________________________________________________
What do you think is the cause of their difference(s)?
_________________________________________________
We humans are always impressed on things much bigger than us. Looking at a
volcano will surely be mesmerized you in its height and depth. On the other the
Taal volcano is very special on its much smaller size as compared to Mayon
volcano. If it is not the size, then what characteristic distinguishes volcanoes from
other landforms?
Volcano is an opening in the Earth’s surface where molten rocks, smoke, gases,
and ashes are erupted. It is not necessarily that volcano should be high or steep.
Some volcanoes, like Taal loses its height as it erupts which is also a characteristic
of volcanoes. Molten rocks, called magma piles up inside a volcano until it cannot
be held inside initiating an eruption. This can cause destruction of the actual
structure of volcano resulting to new physical appearance.
Volcanoes with recorded eruption within the last 600 years are classified as active
volcanoes. Though, some landforms with evidence that also erupted prior to
written history (up to 10,000 years ago) are also classified as active. On the other
hand, those that still not erupt for the past 10,000 years are called inactive
volcanoes.
C. Engagement Now that you have a learned that volcanoes are classified as active and inactive,
we’ll now proceed on the difference in their physical appearance. Though there
are a lot of volcanoes in our country, it is seldom that we are able to see more
than one volcano given that travelling is a bit expensive. Let’s try to imagine other
volcanoes given some of their features. Use the given characteristics below, try to
and illustrate the three described volcanoes.

Do all your illustrations appear like a typical volcano in your mind? (Which one
do? Which one do not?) Gazing on the images of Mt. Mayon in many of you as a
child, you often associate volcanoes to tallness and having a perfect shape.
Looking on Taal Volcano will let you think that eruptions destroy the great
features of a volcano. On the other hand, volcanoes are not bounded to a certain
physical features and shapes. Volcano 3 in the activity describes Mt. Mayon and
all other composite volcanoes. This volcanic shape features high elevation with a
slope like the sides of a triangle. Mt. Mayon is a wonder in the world because of
its almost perfect cone shape and this is a very special case and not the shape to
be expected for all volcanoes. Some volcanoes are naturally small with a very
steep slope which is describe in Volcano 2. This type of volcanic shape is called
cinder volcano. Even though Taal Volcano is a small volcano it doesn’t necessarily
classified as cinder volcano. Taal is a composite volcano like almost all other
volcanoes found in the Philippines and the Pacific Ring of Fire. Features of Taal
was destroyed after an inferred massive eruption before written history. Cinder
volcanoes are formed in a short period of time with size and shape like a hill (try
to recall the images of Chocolate Hills). These volcanoes are made out of lava that
accumulated and solidified together. Lastly, Volcano 1 refers to a volcano which is
much unlikely to our standards of a typical volcano. Shield volcanoes are
extremely huge volcanoes as big as the islands of Hawaii. They are not high and
have a very broad shape with almost no slope. To compare its size to other
volcanoes, there are almost 100 hundred identified cinder volcanoes in Mt.
Kilauea, a shield volcano in the island of Hawaii. Volcanoes have different shapes
because of the different ways on how they are formed. The explanation for this
would be discussed on Grade 10. For now, let us continue on the different types
of eruptions of these volcanoes. Since you are already familiar with the types of
volcanoes, this time we are going to explore the different types of volcanic
eruptions. According to Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology
(PHIVOLCS), Philippines sits on an ideal place where volcanoes form. Our country
has 300 named and unnamed volcanoes, 23 of which are considered to be active,
27 potentially active and the rest are inactive. Since you are already aware that
our country has many volcanoes, it is time for us to be prepared. We can never
tell when volcanic eruption will occur. What do you think will happen when
volcanoes erupt? The types of volcanic eruptions are Phreatic or Hydrothermal,
Phreatomagmatic, Strombolian, Vulcanian and Plinian. The type of volcanic
eruption depends on the water content of the magma.
